Division NABIDINABIA. 



Corischia, Stdl, Eii. Hem. iii, p. 106 (1873). 



In this division the pronotum is provided with a transverse 

 impression a little behind the anterior margin, thus constituting 

 a distinct collar ; the rostrum is long and slender ; ocelli dis- 

 tinct, and the head always distinctly exserted, not immersed to 

 eyes, which are well separated from the anterior margin of the 

 pronotum. 



This is the best known division, as it contains the genus Nahis, 

 which is very widely distributed.
